Hi Guys
According to my list
Are ranks here in German are Luftwaffe ranks maybe all german commands but I found them under the German air force.
I will compare them to the U.S.A.F ranks

Obergefrieter = Corporal
Hauptgefreiter = Sergeant
Feldwebel = Tech. Sergeant
Oberfeldwebel = Master Sergeant

I think I'm a Desk jockey or Secretary. or ??
Hope this helps
